Year of the Water Dragon

Happy Lunar New Year everyone who celebrate, and happy long weekend to those who doesn't.

This is a long posponed post, and while the wi-fi connection is on i'll try to update. I'm pulling all nighter now, because leaving my hometown in 3AM tomorrow, now is around 10.55 PM.
Gonna be a long road, from my hometown Parapat city - Lake Toba to Medan Around 200something kms. Means around 4 hours driving, untill i reach Medan where the airport is. And flight direct to Bandung instead of Jakarta, because i have to meet my professor for my Thesis. Wish me luck everybody.

Now let's on to the night before the Lunar New Year, we called it "Sa Cap Me" means the thirty is a date before the Lunar, same like Christmas Eve. It's the night where families gathered and festive, with food and later in the middle of the night praying. We pray to "Thi Kong" means Sky god? <= need help on this one, because i don't know the exact name for it. And to Kwan Im (Bodhisatva Avalokitesvara), praying for health and prosperity and many more hearts desire.

On to the Lunar New Year, we woke up dress with our new dresses* and wishes everybody "GONG XI FA CHAI" and of course asked the elder (married ones) for angpau** hehe.... After that we went to Vihara, to pray. And usually followed with visiting relatives (Pai Ni).
* It's a believe that we must have new something (usually outfit) on Lunar, because it represents the new prosperity. It's ok if you can only afford one pair of new underwear, simply new ones.
** Angpau: Maybe everyone already know? That angpau is a red envelope that filled with money, that given from the parents to their kids or relatives that already married. I don't exactly knows why only married people can gives angpau. The married kids usually gives angpau to their parents too, and the married kids usually don't get angpau anymore, it's their turn to gives back. The nominal inside is up to the giver.


Lunar New Year is celebrated for 15 days, and the 15th days is called "Cap Go Me" means the 15th night, :) And it's the night where the angpau given is over hiks.. Yeah on Lunar we get to get angpau for 15 days from different people of course, they won't give you tiwce haha... (altho' i wish so sometimes ;p)

The 9th day is the Birthday of the "Thi Kong", and we pray at the 8th day at midnight to the 9th day. I hope you get my point, hehhe... It's the day we eat the cake, what it is called the sticky brown ones?

That's pretty much i can came up to, well just google-d if you wanna know more about this Lunar thingy yeah?

Aula Simfonia Jakarta with Symphonia Vienna

Quick post on our gig last weekend, New Year Concert With The Soloist of Symphonia Orchestra simply wanna show you guys the place. The place itself cost IDR 120.000.000 for one day *glek* imagine how many tons of foundation is that, LOL.

We only perform one song, but it was a huge opportunity, we sung "Alleluia - Ralph Manuel". I love this song so much! Here is the link of our rehearsal before (only some of us attend,because the others had to work hiks) Rehearsing Alleluia and here's another link when we perform this song back in July 2011. Performing Alleluia

Anyway i am blessed because i can watch and hear the Vienna well known artist, Symphonia Vienna  played. And the one that came to Indonesia was the soloists of the Orchestra. My ears was pampered, altho' i have to admit that i was so sleepy at the first session. I'm not a big classical junkie :p
With 15 member that perform in Aula Simfonia Jakarta that night, Violin, Viola, Cello, Contrabass, Harp (Our own Pride,Rama Widi is Indonesian), Flute (i was flown away hearing she play), Oboe, Bassoon, Clarinet, French Horn, Trumpet (the most energetic one >.<), Trombone, Timpani let's just said that those 3 hours was an "eargasm" for me and i root for the conductor OMG!

After concert with Mr. Conductor

PS : His hair seriously bounce while he walks. I need to asked what shampoo he was using :p
And i'm so tall YEAY, naaah, it was him bend down, hiks..

Not to mention their great music talents, all i can say was they're really trouble maker. Why? I thought all the classical musicians have a serious personality, They're so warmth, and welcoming, and supportive to us (blah.. we're nothing compare to them). Also they came with this innovation but keeps the tradition. They show off their major talents on session one (<= we know they're THAT GOOD, that they can made me feel sleepy >.< my lullaby was the tracks from Dj Chuckie and Dj Avicii FYI) and they give us surprising effect on the session 2. They sing, they scream, the conductor clapping with us. They also perform 4 Indonesian folk songs (Ampar-ampar Pisang,O Ina Ni Keke, Jali-Jali, Yamko Rambe Yamko) arranged by their own member, Shi Ri.

I heard they got delayed before come to Jakarta (i believe they fly from Beijing for another tour concert), but they still can perform with no flaws. BRAVO!

Enough of that, time to show off (bear with me my dear fantabulous). *evil grin*

We watched they rehearse on screen only :(

MY GOSH

Camera camera, capture the pretty faces of us all *chant* :D

Surely not admiring the painting, i was being narcistic :D (i still got tons of pics in front of this painting tho')

yeah America Next Top Model wannabe >.<

Rama Widi is the first Harp Player in Indonesia. He performed more than 20 times being soloist in famous Orchestra all over the world since 2005. And he didn't stop, he also enjoy to enriched his talent by taking master class from World class harpist such as Jana Bouskova, Marie Claire Jamet and lots more. He started learn Harp back in 2004 and in 2010 graduated from Vienna Conservatory with Cumlaude (In Indonesia, it equal with Master Degree). Now his aim is to "educated" people in his origin country, our beloved Indonesia to appreciate and learn the Classical Music to think and achieve big in Classical music like all the European does. We hope, no, we are very sure that we will see more from him in the future, Viva La Musica.

For me, music heals.. i hope for you guys too.

Me on One Shoulder Black Dress

I got this dress last year, approx  $30. And couple month later after i bought these dress, i saw lots of FB OL shop sell this. Some sell them a lot higher, but i saw one shop that sold this for less than $20. I was like.. GRRR!
But it's okay lah, i mean, these dress is useful for my concert dress, i can wear it with lots of different style. I would show you guys how i style-d it for these past two days.

Day 2

On day 2, we're exhausted, and i just washed my hair, so it'll be a bit difficult to back combing my hair, because it was kinda loose. And i decided to let it be.. And wear a statement necklace to make a different look from day 1.

Day 1

Day one, i wanna look lady like, so i :
1. Updo my hair (messy 5 mins updo)
2. Wear simple accesories, ring and earrings only

If you don't wanna change the dress, change the accesories and your hairstyle, it'll make a huge different on an outfit!

Swatch NYX black Label Lipstick

And when my friend drove me home earlier, she decided to hang out in my room for a while. And made quite a damage! She literally throw away anything from my traincase and played with it, doing swatch and yeah we had fun. She just being silly and the positive thing was i realize that i have this NYX lipstick that i never worn! Dooh.... it hide under the traincase covered with shimmering powder which i rarely wear.

So this is the late night narcism, we took pics and doing make up. I decided to practice what i learn from Kelas Dandan, and it was quite satisfaction.

NYX Black Label Lipstick in Cherry (BLL 105)

L : Australis Mineral Inject Foundation in Golden Tan - R : NYX BLL 105

 (Bottom L : swipe once R : swipe twice)

Swatch on lips, i added orange lip gloss to it, and loving the result

FOTD :

The left pic was earlier today around 2 PM, using Australis foundation. Right pic was having fun on the photoshoot while doing swatch post :D

I love how the foundation turns out on my face, will do a separate review about this.

Picture spam (MY FAVOURITE PART) *evil grin*

Kelas Dandan Looxperiments

Hey ho, done stealing pics! I forgot to take pics with my digicam, yeah... can i be anymore stupid? They're so nice allowing me to grab some of the pics :p
The full picture, you can have a sneak peak on their facebook page

I came late, 30 mins, so i miss the introduction part, and the beginning of the class. >.<

Kelas Dandan Looxperiments

Where

Last Sunday, Jan, 8th, 2011. Held in @WarungNgebul at Jl. Dago No. 230 Bandung, the owner of this cute resto is @Vabyo, he's a writer, very talented man, i read one of his book already, and if got some cash would run to get another book he wrote.
I like the place, they're not that big, but cozy, you feel like you're dining in your lawn, and the menus, is GREAT BUT CHEAP. I love almost all of the food there, that's why i'm so excited when i knew that the Kelas Dandan will be held in Warung Ngebul. And surprisingly, i can order my fav menu, it was included in the fee for this Kelas Dandan, yumm!!!

Who is the tutor?

The Kelas Dandan event was thrown by @looxperiments, i can't believe i just knew them. WHERE HAVE I BEEN!!!!! I knew looxperiment from talented Mr. @Endi_Feng, and i just can't stop reading it, they review great products, and they have weekly event, like an experiment on make up look (they throw so many already, from flapper to gyaru look). You guys can submit your look to their FB Page or Twitter base of that week theme, everybody is welcome and invited. So what do you waiting my dear fantabulous, grab your make up kit and start doing your face :)
Looxperiments admins are Vina @akanebina for make up, Lidya @just_lidya for hair do and helping the contestant with make up also, Okke @sepatumerah as "victim" that day for practising make up hehe and the talented photographer, Yullie @13vyl the helper,she livetweet the event on twitter.

Kelas dandan have 2 curriculum, make up party and hair do. I only take hair do. Because i was so lazy when it comes to hair, and don't have the passion >.<

How?

After given the freebies kit (who doesn't love freebies) such as, make up brush, make up sponges, falsies we got prep on face(cleansing), and do the eye make up first, afterward, we go on and put foundation, learn to contouring nose and cheek, and putting falsies doooh... the most intriguing part of make up haha...
The event take longer than i thougt, it was full of laugh and fun.

After done with make up, they threw a doorprize, a lot of it from beauty book to eyeshadow! I didn't win *sobbing* :p

Now on to review shall we, ladies, don't worry i'm being brutally honest too, like i did on FD Kelas Dandan
Note : Not that i didn't love the kelas dandan that was held by FD I LOVE IT, trust me but will submit for the advance one next time, but i feel more home-y and comfy in my own home town (cliche, i know) :)

Love :

*The ambience is so friendly and home-y. Make the newbies really comfortable and not hesitate while the progress, the interaction process is nice between the tutor and the contestant.
*I learn some new tips, and realize every teacher have different way of putting make up. Who is right or wrong, well they have explanation for that. I think it's just a matter of preferences, such as, what first? Eye make up or foundation? Nothing wrong if you want to use your foundation before eye make up. <= Embrace all the new knowledge and if you can apply that, then it's good, if you stop learning then it's already a FAILURE, right my fantabulous??
*For such a cheap price for knowledge, they charge IDR 275k (approx. $ 30 if using $1 = IDR 9k) for make up and hair do we got food also, not only meal, but from appetizer to dessert, i skipped the yummy dessert because i have to run to another gig, sadly :(
*I did some chit chat with Okke, and she said if the contestant was more than 10, they will separate it, wow such an non-profit thinking. It means they're really sincere to share with us the knowledge and make each of us can practice at home by ourselves. Nice thinking!
*They do keep wanna keep in touch with us, the contestant, they asked for our data's such as names, blog (if have),twitter and email.

Hate :

*Don't get me wrong, i have nothing against the place, but i feel bad to the owner, many customers came and they didn't have the tables, half is full to the event. As a daughter of restaurant owner and studying marketing, that was called lost sale hohohoho.. BLAH <= reminds me, i have to get my thesis done hiks!
* I hate the lighting, for me that have minus 7, i need more lighting when doing make up.


What i think they can improve in the future?

Overall i love the event, to know more people, to learn new things, and to keep in touch, i got many new friends. I would love to attend another Kelas Dandan with different type of curriculum, maybe "How to Apply Make Up for Other?", and oh yeah maybe for the next event for Kelas Dandan they can give like some kind of suggestion, of what newbies should have in their make up case? Last but not least, me myself like to be told what gone wrong with my make up, some kind of feedback, what did i did good at the class, what should i practice more in the future.


Enough rambling, i know you all wanna see my pretty face *vomit* hahahaha... joke ladies :p
Sorry i only grab my pictures i have to respect their copyright hey? ^^ You can have a sneak peak on the link that i give you on the top of the post.

Haul Gone WRonG

Mamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.................. i bought these gorgeous nude heels. Ok! I admit, my fault, been promising not to buy another shoes, but come on! Just one pair :blush: and it was 70% sale, plus i want i NEED a pair of nude shoes, PLUS IT's (supposed to be) MY SIZE 35 du du du >.<

I bought it in the afternoon, so they said, if wanna buy a pair of shoes, better bought it at noon or night, because that's your true size. I don't know if that's true or not, or the logic explanation behind that, that's why we have google i think hahaha... If you girls curious just go browsing, i can't help on that :p

Anyway, when i bought it, i was trying it walking around the store, and the next store to show it to my bencongs, and they were like," LUCKY b*tch, how'd you get one pair of that with less than $10?" <= TRANSLATION, THEY LIKE IT, LOL...

But, the misery begin yesterday when i wanna wear it to attend my buddy's wedding. Mama, my shoes ain't fit me no more (singing in RnB style). Now i'm sad, literally, i'm gonna take it to mr.shoe man, to fix it, adding something maybe? I don't know, i just wanna wear it, badly.. huhuhuhu... :sobbing:

My Beloved Make Up Now and Then

I've been raving a lot about my beloved Inez eyeshadow and wearing a lot of Amuse blush palette on my FOTD.

Now they look like this, some almost hit pan. And the Amuse was fall twice and cracked, but i fix that with alcohol, and they look ugly, but the pigmentation is not changing. Love it!

Vienna - Venice - Pattaya

I seriously want Inez Palette, quite forgot about it for several month, but yesterday when at Kelas Dandan, i was using Sephora Color Play - 5 in 1 Palette and blah... not loving it.
Why? Chalky, and not pigmented! Even with my beloved Aubeau eyeshadow base. It faded after 4 hours application. But to be fair, it did a good job for them that has NC 20-30 skin tone. Not for me, my lid didn't appreciate them much LOL...

PS : Inez Palette cost not more for $50 (approx IDR 450k).
Consist of : 12 lipstick, 2 concealer, 20 eyeshadow, 6 blush on, 5 face powder.

Sun-Day

Yesterday i had a lot of gigs. Attending my best bud's wedding early in the morning. For the holy matrimony and straight to reception. Meet a lots of colleague and former classmates was always fun, huh?

Except the part that i only slept 3 hours the night before, well i'm grumpy and sleepy the whole day. Not good, especially after the wedding i have to attend @looxperiment #KelasDandan. I came late hiks.. because of the traffic. But gladly i didn't miss much. Yeay... I will do a separate post about this kelas dandan, because i forgot to take pictures i am planning to steal their pics :D hahaha...

Afterwards, i have another gig. Meeting up with my beloved Grown Up Club Miss them so, it;s so hard to find a time and place where everyone can meet up. We missed @KakaNina last night! But i am so happy, i can met my cute nephew, Mas Fatir.... I haven't met him since he was born, last July, bad Iie-Iie (Aunty in Mandarin).

Faces can't lie, i'm exhausted!!! But happy to meet my bencongs. Left : Nike, Center : Yosephine Maria, Right : Me :D

Love the idea of the standing lamp @ Plate For Me, A new cafe on Jalan Riau.

Wrong setting of my camera >.<

Late that night Momo, Firly, Niko, me, Dimas and Uwie and Mas Fatir already went home, my cute Fatir need his baby nap :)

DIY - Room Project Progress (Part 1)

I have so many stuff, and realize it. It was so messy lah my room! Seriously, everything is everywhere! And since i'm planning to get my own house (renting it first probably) i don't bother to buy anymore stuff. Just using the stuff that i already got to do this Room Make over.

So what did i do?

I re-arrange my room, which cost me NOTHING but muscle pain. <= Thanks to my laziness when it comes to work out.. du duu duuu... From early "today's outfit" section you guys realize that i put my vanity near my bath room right, and the mirror is right in front of the bathroom. Not clear enough but here's hint on my previous vanity section.

Collecting stuff and divided by its place, ex : vanity in one place ( i did it, but somehow it got messy every time, why oh why :D )

Using a theme! Ex : This month theme is blue, since i change my bedsheet to blue color, i covered up everything in blue. Next month is batik, so batik hunting is on <= Just another reason to shop, sadly i admit.

Humiliation begin! 

This was my room looks like for one year >.< (and i found the baby Belle pic daughter of the house manager,she is so cute, now she can talk, and already in pre-school)

 Next to my lappie corner is my refrigerator, now MOVED already :D

 NOW :D (after re-arrange)

I haven't got a chance to do a full make over, because i still hunting for the organizer, went to Ace Hardware, got few items that i like, but want to compare it with muji.
Right now i'm quite satisfied, my room looks bigger and of course tidier hehe... with ZERO dollar that is why this post is posted under DIY section.

Still look a bit messy, TV, below is my curler and dvd player, next is my dvd's rack (mostly romantic comedy, i'm helplessly romantic, need to upgrade my version of fairytale SOON, LOL), lappie, next is my vanity table, and spot where i take pic.

Next to it is, my refrigerator, bath room sink (wastafel), and my bath room.

How i Lost 10 Kgs

Well, on Fd and Twitter everyone's been asking me about how did i loose my weight?
To be honest, i don't know. Probably staying late, and stress caused it.
But i did notice if i eat properly, 3 times a day and stick to the timing, it helps me to loose weight! I'm not an expert of anything, but that's how i did lost it. And it's not on short term, probably about 2 years till i got my current weight.

After i got back from Italy last July, i gained like 6 kg. And now my weight is back to normal, 44kg.
I never bother to check my ideal weight or whatsoever, as long as i feel comfortable. And my weight never pass 55kg, usually 53 or 54 kg the max.
Thanks to my fellow blogger Miss Fifi from www.prettymuchmakeup.com she reminded me to tell you pretties about my height, haha.. i forgot that essential information.
Well i'm 150cm/44kgs right now, and i don't know how to calculate the ideal weight, but some people do tell me that i have to loose a couple kgs to get to my ideal weight.

I don't think i will be able to lost anymore kgs, because my cheek and under eye will look seriously bad, not fresh at all. And with my body shape that has so many curves, i'm happy with what i am now, i just want to be healthy.

Honest, i didn't take loose weight pills, or medication whatsoever. I eat properly because i have gastric and it did helps, and the negativity of staying late until dawn did make a serious damage to my body, so i did loose weight but not in a healthy way last 2010 and 2011. <= Please don't follow this step, seriously unhealthy!!!!!

You ladies should probably eat 3 times a day and manage to eat at the exact same time everyday, and not to eat after 7 it did helps. Cliche, but it's the healthy way!!! You prefer healthy body even late progress than quick progress but your body is gonna pay for it later?

My friends also told me that with eating less fried stuff, she can manage healthier body and skin and loose weight in several months.

Here what i look like back in 2009 and early 2010.
